Dedicated professional with experience in sales and customer service.
What I'm looking for
I am a hardworking and punctual individual who thrives in both team-oriented and independent environments. My experience spans various roles, including a Special Needs Teaching Assistant, where I collaborate with teachers to support students effectively. I emphasize responsibility, adaptability, and communication in all my interactions.
In my previous role as a B2B ICT Sales Representative, I successfully established relationships with new business clients while promoting ICT services. My background in real estate sales has equipped me with strong negotiation skills and the ability to guide clients through complex processes. I take pride in maintaining trust with existing clients and ensuring their needs are met.
Throughout my career, I have progressed through various roles, demonstrating my ability to adapt and take on increasing responsibilities. I am eager to bring my skills in customer service, sales, and teamwork to a new opportunity where I can continue to grow professionally.
